I am a long time dog owner, former veterinary assistant, and current social worker. I love all dogs and will make sure your dog is well-cared for and happy, just like my own dogs! My husband and I own our home and have two dogs of our own. My dogs are crate-trained but are out with us when we are home, and they enjoy the finer things in life, especially snuggling on the couch! I will, of course, honor the rules you have in place for your doggie and will make sure I don't encourage any unwanted habits. We have a large fenced yard (6 foot privacy fence) for frequent potty breaks and outdoor play time. I'm also happy to take your dog to the dog park if you would like!
